A male character transformed into a princess on a Disney TV show — and people are loving it

The Disney Channel show "Star Vs. The Forces Of Evil" showed male cartoon character Marco Diaz transforming into a princess.

The crowd was skeptical until one princess in the crowd quickly explained that it doesn't matter what his gender is.

People are loving Disney's recent strides to change what children see as "normal."

There's a new princess in the Disney kingdom, and "she" happens to be a boy!

On the Disney channel show "Star Vs. The Forces Of Evil," male cartoon character Marco Diaz transforms into a princess (complete with his own ballgown).

"I have to tell you the truth," Diaz tells a crowd of fellow princesses. "I ... am a boy."

At first, the crowd was skeptical about a "hairy boy" becoming a princess. "Is that a hair?" the crowd gasped.

But a princess in the crowd quickly explained why Diaz's gender — and his chest hair — doesn't matter. "That doesn't prove anything!" the princess cried out. "Princesses can be hairy!" The group of princesses ultimately decided that Diaz CAN be a boy princess.

"Why does it matter if he's a boy?" another princess chimed in. "Nothing he said was wrong!"

"He can be a princess if he wants to," the crowd announced.

Twitter immediately started happy-crying over this beautiful TV moment.

Viewers have waited a long time for a boy Disney princess.

The scene sends a powerful message to young children.

Children often feel pressured into following outdated gender norms — but the more the entertainment industry shows men and women shamelessly living their lives, the earlier young people will internalize these "groundbreaking situations" as normal.
